To put it simply, it is the transmission's job to turn the engine's power (RPMs) into torque for the wheels of the vehicle. For example, 1st gear is the shortest gear and as you work your way up to 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gear, the gear ratios become taller. This permits your vehicle to climb to higher speeds as...

We have been taking our cars and truck to Bullitt (even before with Ken's Auto) for years. They have proven themselves repeatedly to be honest and professional. Our cars and truck have a combined mileage of 490,000 miles. Youngest has over 150,000 miles. They have always worked with me to keep my expenses low and finish the work quickly. In fact, my only complaint has been that they finish the work before I finish my computer work that I bring to fill the time in the waiting room. Kudos to Clinton and Mike on my visit today for a motor mount replacement on my Scion 2012 (at 170,000 miles). I recommend them to all my friends.

Always my favorite place. They know my old vehicle and keep her running. They listen to you and fix what is needed. Never an issue with them and have been going for years. Great group.

I would recommend Bullitt Automotive to everyone. They are so honest and polite. The dealership was telling me that I needed all this work done and when I went to get a second opinion they told me I was getting taken and that I didn't need the work and showed me the computer print out that backed them up. I will take my car to Bullitt any time I need work done from now on. Thank you Bullitt.

This place is great, friendly, and very respectful. They got me in same day for an oil change and trip check, cost effective, fast service.

The other day I had my wife bring my car in for a simple routine oil change. No chips no scratches or dings in the vehicle. I get home from work and walk past my car and saw a dent. I asked her what happened. She didn’t hit anything. We called bullitt automotive to ask did they damage my vehicle. They all gave me the short answer. So I asked for the manager they put me on hold for 20 mins and when he got on the phone I explained what happened and all he could say is sorry and not our problem. I will not be using them again in the future.

I WOULD NOT PUT ANY STARS if I could!! I recommend you STAY AWAY! Very unprofessional when discussed about damages that were made by Bullitt Automotive. Took my vehicle in for a simple service and came out with issues that is now costing me more money! When discussed with manger he DID NOT show any sense of concern or care for the matter. They just want MONEY! STAY FAR AWAY!!

Clinton and the Bullitt team took great care of me. I went in for a routine oil change, and it was just that — routine. I stayed in the waiting area while it was completed, and was in and out. While waiting, another customer’s car finished up, and Clinton gave her the lowdown on the additional issue that was found. He was transparent and caring in delivering the news, and he and the other talked for a few minutes casually — there wasn’t a rush to get them out, and any question they raised was answered. While that’s not always the case wherever you go, it does seem to be here. Bullitt and Clinton will continue to have my business for the foreseeable future.

Bullitt services not only my car but other cars in my family. They are amazing. I cannot recommend highly enough. Fair pricing and attention to detail.

Had a great experience here with Clinton. Came in for oil change, tire rotation, and to get car checked out before a long trip. They checked everything out and found what looked to be a big problem with bearings that turned out to be a simple seal replacement and charged me less than originally quoted. I really felt taken care of and would recommend everyone to come here to get your car taken care of!!

We only take our car here because they are so honest and always do an amazing job. All the reviews raving about their honest good workmanship are not exaggerating! They always give a fair price and try to offer you the lowest amount possible. They seriously always treat you like you are a relative they are giving favors to! Just today they had a mechanic who happened to have a spare part from one of his own cars and they happily gave it to us and saved us 80 dollars! We first came here because of the great reviews and they were the only people that didn't tell us we needed 1000s of dollars of repairs and replacements in the used car we had just bought. That's when we knew the reviews weren't lying about their ethical way of practicing business! Don't even think about it if you need car work done, come here.

I was referred to Bullitt by a friend and I'm glad I went with the recommendation. Clinton, Todd, and team took care of my car quickly, providing quality work and customer service! These guys are fair, and I WILL use them again.

They had to replace our clutch THREE times! I used to love this place back when it was Ken's, but it was bought out by Bullitt a couple of years ago. We had them replace a clutch in a Honda CRV, and it took them a year and three attempts, while also constantly saying it wasn't an issue on their end and we might have to replace other parts ranging from another $1500 to $3000. After they replaced the clutch for the third time it still wouldn't run and they said we needed to replace the drive shaft for another $1500. We had it towed to a new mechanic who fixed these idiots clutch installation for around $300, and had it up and running in a few hours. We went back to Bullitt to try to get a refund for the nonsense they charged us for but they were nothing but defensive. So much money wasted with these morons. This was by far the worst experience with a mechanic shop I have ever had. Please stay away!

So many great things to say about the shop I'm not even sure where to start. First and foremost they actually really do care about you and your safety! They're honest and explain everything to you in detail! most of it I don't understand but I appreciate the explanation! LOL my husband and I work different schedules so it's often left to me by myself to deal with any car issues I may have. I can't tell you the number of times I've gone in there and told them I thought I needed a brake job and they told me that I didn't.they could have easily told me I needed a $500 brake job and I wouldn't have known any different. I feel comfortable going up there by myself and I know that they're not going to take advantage of me! They're always able to get me in at the last minute. Because you know car troubles never happen when it's convenient! On top of all that they're just nice friendly decent people. To Todd, Steve, Junior, Clinton and I'm so sorry I cannot remember the gal that answers the phone but she is just as sweet as sweet can be I thank you all very much for taking care of my old girl!

When I needed HELP the most, after being stranded at the local NAPA Auto Parts store, I was referred to Bullitt Automative! Todd answered the phone and was attentive, listened to my dilemma (dead battery) and instantly sent out one of his Incredible staff to help me. He arrived within 5 minutes, jumped my car and followed me to Bullitt to make sure I was safe. Then the Bullitt Team took over and instantly looked at the battery, replaced it and did it all with a SMILE and a great Heart! They absolutely are going to BE there for you, provide Quality service, are extremely honest and trustworthy and have a Deep commitment to give the BEST service in Arizona! Please give them a try, and I Promise you will Not be disappointed! Blessings to the entire Bullitt Team for being my Angels today!!!! God Bless you all!

I have two Volvos, a 98 & 08. I recently brought my 98 in for a repair due to my own doing (stupidity). I spoke with Todd who had Steve look at my car. If there’s a Great Lake named Volvo, Steve walks on that water! He knew what he was doing, quickly diagnosing and repairing the problem without charging me an arm and a leg. They were honest, fast and SO reasonable. There is nowhere else I will bring either of my cars for any repairs or service. Oh, I have a Honda Odyssey as well. It too will be coming here for service. I was originally referred to Bullitt Automotive by a friend and I recommend them now to anyone. My car is now running smoothly! Bullitt is the best! Yay Steve!

Great place to get your car fixed. I had a blown motor on my 2015 mustang and i bought a used motor and they replaced the whole engine on the car and got it running nice and smooth in about 4 days. If there is one mechanic shop i can trust with fixing my car. It’s gotta be this one. Great staff especially Todd for helping me out with my choices on how to fix the car. They are very reliable and honest with their work.

I'm a DIY kind of person but not when it comes to AC. After going to 2 different shops trying to charge me $1100 to replace my entire AC system after a drastic assumption, I was referred to Bullitt Automotive by a coworker who knows Todd personally. given that her husband is a diesel mechanic and they referred me to them I was curious,! When I spoke with Todd, He educated me about how the AC system works, how they'll approach it and he gave me 2 scenarios on what it may cost me. They were more than willing to install the parts I already purchased and now I have to return the ones I never needed putting money back in my pocket! In the end Todd and Bullitt Automotive saved me over $600 and made the whole process very pleasant and affordable!

I was referred by a friend for an alignment. I was so impressed with this shop, I took my old pickup with a worn out engine that was sitting on the side of the house collecting dust because it wasn't running, in. They are now rebuilding the engine for me. They have been great communicating with me the whole time and have explained everything that was wrong so even I could understand. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone for all car repairs and maintenance. They provide top notch service and the prices were extremely reasonable.

I've been going to Bullitt since their early days at the old shops and i keep coming back to this day. Why you ask? Because not only can you rest assured that whatever you take your vehicle in to get fixed, is fixed properly, but because of their AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Never have I been up sold on a repair, pressured into a service that I did not need, or overpaid for any service. As for my latest experience, Clinton H. was just excellent! He went through every resource to get my vehicle fixed without breaking my bank account and treated my vehicle as if it was his own. People like Clinton and the rest of the staff at Bullitt is why I keep going back to this shop and I will always highly suggest them to anybody who is looking for a professional and trusting auto mechanic. THANK YOU BULLITT AUTO!!!!

The Bullitt Automotive team has taken exceptionally good care of my cars for years now and I highly recommend utilizing their services. They have your best interest in mind and they aren't here to inflate prices on you. I feel comfortable coming here as a single young woman and I know that they aren't going to rip me off. I recently had an AC issue and I (very regrettably) took my car to Brake Masters on Mill before I took my car to these guys that I've had a long-standing relationship with. While Brake Masters took 2 hours to "diagnose" the same issue that took Bullitt 30 minutes, Brake Masters also intentionally tried to deceive me and say that parts were broken that were not, and it would be $500+ to fix the issue. I told them a fat "HELL NO" and took my car to Bullitt, the most genuine and authentic mechanics around. Turns out, this issue was incredibly simple- the motor for one of my engine fans was loosely fastened, causing it to come on intermittently. Instead of emptying my wallet, Bullitt snapped the plug back in place and sent me home with perfectly functional AC and even a new headlight (which O'Rilley's said would be $100, which was also a lie!). The Bullitt Automotive team has always been consistent and they're just good people. I recommend coming here for any service, whether you are trying to buy a new car and want it checked out by a mechanic, need an oil change, or have any other issues, this is your place. I especially recommend this mechanic for all the colleges kids out there trying to find a dependable mechanic at a fair price!

Outstanding service, honest and reliable. I have been bringing my older Volvo's to BULLIT for over 3 years and can't say enough good things about this business. It reminds me of the old days when you knew your car was in good hands. If your reading this, please bring your car there for servicing and repairs as we need to support locally privately owned businesses. They have a nice waiting room and usually have a driver to get you home and back.
